About this map

The Snake River corridor in Franklin County defines this landscape, where the massive infrastructure of the Ice Harbor Lock and Dam facilitates navigation and power generation. The interior terrain shows the complex water management systems of the era, notably the Eltopia Branch Canal and several pumping stations that support the region's agricultural transition. These engineered waterways contrast with the protected natural landscape of the Juniper Dunes Wilderness along the eastern margin.

Transportation networks are anchored by the Pasco Kahlotus Road and Ice Harbor Road, connecting the river to upland landmarks like Lower Smith Canyon. Local utility and industry footprints are visible through features such as the Landing Strip, a Gravel Pit, and a large Storage Bin, reflecting the rural infrastructure of the early 1990s. The map also delineates the boundary between Franklin and Walla Walla counties where they meet at the river.
